GBA PRESENTS- the public games

A few times this cadre of traders has tried to score a huge windfall betting on us all being scared.

At least two times that I know of they failed. they lost a lot of money.

Then irony of irony when Japan carry trade blew up they did not have the trade on. :D They would be mega rich if the had..

Now they are back. 1 main guy... and I think two others

They are betting on a sept Vix spike but it's only to a very attainable 22 I am told<---

They had to pay up though this is a $9 mil bet....:caution:

My Dec calls are working like you said they would! True story, look it up.



“WMT flatlined at $73, Stoney are they pinning the calls? I bought the December $73.33(Weird Strike!) $3.4s ave.”

Yes further out the better look at a chart this is an all time B/O 5 year / 10 year highly significant.

Company is executing huge on value. And I don't know this (never been in a Wallmart) do they have private label?

I did a Private Label thesis recently after talking to food executives- there is a moment happening right now in private label food never seen before. Consumers want anything cheaper. And they will even eat Private Label meat!! Yuck!

Huge change in consumer behavior and it's because of shrinkage<-- shorting us on portions and raising prices.

Kamala just said she is going after the food companies and really.. they deserve it.

Tree House is the play now-- COSCO and WMT benefit from this trend. Walmart just by pricing power- they can sell cereal 15% cheaper than a super market.

That's huge in these times of high food inflation./

Had you put a mere $500 into yesterdays $475 qqq puts when I said to.... 10 contracts... you're $500 turned into $5000 at one point if you let them ride. There's people here that do that everyday, they're not wasting their time buying penny stocks hoping for a 5% move which is more like 3% because of the spread. Or even holding a stock and getting 10%-15% over the space of months.

I mean sure, that's great stock picking, but all the bravado... ahhhh..... no.

You gotta hand hold me through my first option play - :(

Warren, Peter, --->and Van.

* that $150.... was before a 3:1 split.

Readers are up 50% plus on a granny stock.
Amazing I know. In just over a year.
I owe it all to Pete. Not the big one, the one in Boston. ;)

Lawd Camel do not play options. It is beyond stupid. Too many variables. If you find a name you like buy the stock.

If you ever want to try options use THE SYSTEM I have taught you... I should quiz you now:::

What Is The System?
